Chicago needs school vouchers. And Rahm needs to meditate.

I guess the Rahmulans really showed her who was boss...

Most of the functions of the public schools should be transferred to the Internet & most public education should become "distance learning".

Of course, that would release the death grip of the State on "your" property...

Man! That Rahm Emanuel & his wife are just plain lucky!

University of Chicago Laboratory Schools doesn't have a "formal" waiting list, and they somehow managed to squeeze those lucky little Rahmlets into the classes for this year.

I'll bet the Rahms will be holding their collective breaths to see if their kids get back in next year.

It's GOOD to be a Party member...

Of course, this Chicago Tribune article from June 4, 2010 must be lying, because it claims that there was a waiting list of 235 for 2010-2011:

Those lucky little Rahmlets got into the elite University of Chicago Laboratory Schools.

Yeah, but they only take students parented by those "Most Likely to Succeed." (/snix)
